Over the shop  Cover Image Book Book

Over the shop / JonArno Lawson ; illustrated by Qin Leng.

Lawson, JonArno, (author.). Leng, Qin, (illustrator.).

Summary:

In a beautifully detailed wordless picture book, a tumbledown building becomes home sweet home for a found family.A lonely little girl and her grandparent need to fill the run-down apartment in their building. But taking over the quarters above their store will mean major renovations for the new occupants, and none of the potential renters can envision the possibilities of the space-until one special couple shows up. With their ingenuity, the little girl's big heart, and heaps of hard work, the desperate fixer-upper begins to change in lovely and surprising ways. In this bustling wordless picture book, JonArno Lawson's touching story and Qin Leng's gentle illustrations capture all angles of the building's transformation, as well as the evolving perspectives of the girl and her grandparent. A warm and subtly nuanced tale, Over the Shop throws open the doors to what it means to accept people for who they are and to fill your home with love and joy. Provided by publisher.
